That I don't really know what to do. I think I understand the basics of the
weighting system, but I'm confused by the results of switching from
probabilistic query (parameter P) to boolean filtering (parameter B.)
Probably by adding a <meta name="keywords" content="dfsg, social contract"> it
could gain some more weight. Olly, do you have any comment or suggestion as to
what could be done? AFAICS not even the document's <title> is recorded as
Sterms.
Cheers,
